African Gold Group, Inc., ("AGG" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:
AGG) is pleased to report that, the Company recently engaged Senior
Geologist, Mr. Pierre Lalande, P. Geo., to conduct a comprehensive
review and analysis of AGG's Kobada, Mali gold project. Mr. Lalande's
priorities for the Kobada gold project include:
- Conducting an independent review and analysis of the complete
Kobada data base, consisting of all historical drill and analytical
data compiled by the previous owners, (the BRGM, La Source and
Cominor SA), as well as, all drill and analytical data generated by
AGG, since acquiring Kobada, through the course of its exploration
program(s), which commenced with diamond drilling in November 2005;
- Prepare an independent report, based on the analysis of the entire
Kobada data base, that detailed Lalande's findings and conclusions
with respect to Kobada's potential;
Mr. Lalande is a career geologist with approximately 40 years of
field experience of which the vast extent of this experience has been
spent and is currently being spent in West Africa. From 1970 - 1994
Pierre was a Senior Geologist with Watts, Griffis and McOuat Ltd.
From 1994 - 2001 Pierre served as Chief Geologist for IAMGOLD Corp.,
and from 2001 - 2005 as Technical Advisor to Orezone Resources Inc.
The West African projects that Pierre contributed in adding value to
include: Sadiola (Mali), Yatela (Mali), Siguri (Guinea), Kiniero
(Guinea) and Samira-Libiri (Niger).
AGG filed its Initial National Instrument 43-101 compliant Mineral
Resources Estimate for its Kobada, Mali gold project on SEDAR on May
15, 2008.
The Mineral Resources estimate was completed by Watts, Griffis and
McOuat Limited of Toronto ("WGM"), a well respected international
consulting firm.
In summary, WGM estimates that "Zone 1" of the Kobada deposit,
representing approximately 10% of the overall Kobada Trend, as
presently outlined, contains an Inferred Mineral Resource of between
450,000 ounces of gold and 740,000 ounces of gold as follows:

Mr. Lalande has drawn a number of conclusions from his extensive
review of the entire Kobada data base. The following is of great
significance to AGG and its shareholders:
- The Initial 43-101 compliant Mineral Resources Estimate for "Zone
1" of the Kobada deposit, completed by WGM and filed on SEDAR on May
15, 2008, excluded 100% of the Reverse Circulation ("RC") drill data
and analytical results that were generated by the previous owners of
Kobada (The BRGM, La Source and Cominor SA). This was not understood
by AGG prior to its review of Lalande's independent review of the
Kobada data base.
- Upon inquiring of WGM with respect to the omission of the
historical RC drill data, it was ascertained that the historical RC
drill information was excluded from the "Zone 1" 43-101 Mineral
Resources Estimate for the following reasons: 1/ WGM was unable to
re-check the historical samples generated by the previous owners due
to the extensive passage of time and therefore sample degradation; 2/
the historical analytical results, from the previous owners RC
campaigns, were from (small) 15 gram aliquot, tri-acid digestion,
MIBK extraction and AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy) as compared
to AGG's analysis by 50 gram fire assay (FA50) with approximately 25%
of the samples re-assayed by Metallic Screened Fire Assay on 1 kg
aliquot (SFA).
- The previous owners drilled 135 RC drill holes within "Zone 1" of
the Kobada deposit. Drill fences were collared on 100 meter sections
over 1.2 km of strike. These RC drill hole fences were focused on
defining the oxide mineralization from surface to a maximum vertical
depth of 110 meters and averaged 80 vertical meters, from surface.
